I'm only a stones throw away from Pennsylvania and have been planning a move up there for a few years. Hopewell, Fawn or Peach Bottom township is likely where I'll be soon.
Just sitting back and seeing what rural properties come up for sale. As far as 2A stuff, just gawking on PAFOA forum to see what state gun control bills are making moves. Nothing really interesting state wide but Pittsburgh sure has it's gun grabbers making noise

Everyone should take credit for what they do and be public about it. Now isn't the time for hiding our good deeds. Now is the time to do whatever we can to make a difference.
One of the great Torah sages of the early commentators was asked if a synagogue should list the names of donors on its wall, or if that was too much self praise. He answered that it was permissible because they were desperate for funds and publicizing donors would promote others to donate.
I feel that applies here as well. Everyone needs to get involved. Everyone should be recognized and praised for making the effort.
Yeah, I'm also looking at PA. We have a couple of properties on our radar. But, PA is turning purple very fast.
OH, so the only way to entertain u is to have people be violent. Ok. Mods mental check on aisle 5.

Where's the beef?
It was on a plaque on President Reagan's desk.
Also, it was worth showing up or watching the hearings online just for your own edification. It was amazing being in a room full of great people who aren't afraid of the gun taboo and agree with you, especially in Maryland. Also, the testimony was so gratifying. it really made us all feel great to watch so many people speaking so well about the issues and standing up for us. Its worthwhile to go back and watch a the hearing just for that.
Admission to a SOTAR class will be purchased.
shmuel would like to donate $1,000.
Anonymously.
LOL, this isn't about who gets credit. Ultimately, I think we all know this won't end well and no one gets credit for a loss. This is about everyone doing their part and recognizing that there is something for everyone to do.
Rhetorical
the plaque was a quote of, I think, a Coca Cola CEO from the 20s - but Truman was actually quoted as saying something nearly identical.

There’s a difference between changing someone’s mind and changing someone’s vote. What they think is what they think but how they vote has more to do with how that affects them politically. The AR15 HBAR ban bill has something like 50 cosponsors I believe. Many of these would be perfectly happy just to report that “they tried” and have no real desire one way or the other about the actual passing of the bill.

R.I.P.
Also, the meeting is open to everyone. You're more than welcome to come and say your piece. I'll cede the podium for one minute, just like Zirkin gave us lol. In fact even ur best friend hettleman is invited. And she can even vote!! You should nominate her!!!! (ironically, its kinda funny that a super anti gun jew can vote, but a super pro gun gentile can't vote, I think we need to change the rules to exclude anti gun people)
Sure they do, we just change the semantics to “blame.”
Some need to step away from the keyboard.
You do understand the hypocrisy you just espoused right?

Idk, some of these people only care about party politics and getting a win for the party. So yeah, they probably don't care about the issue itself, but they will do whatever party leadership says they have to do.
I think our group is unique because we live in the city and county, and we are not at all what most mainstream media depict all the time as gun owners. So, in that way, I think we may have helped shift her perspective. Getting her to see that her very own neighbors own guns and not just some hillbillies from flyover country.

Did you stop to think why I only mentioned Hettleman and not: Zirkin, Stein and Cardin? Did it phase you that I may have known her husband Jeff and her in-laws Myra and Buzzy for much longer than she has been in politics?
Keep alienating yourself from potential allies and your existing circle will continue to shrink.
This is Shmuel's MDS claim to fame... https://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?231485&p=5445203#post5445203
LOL, really? Does anyone blame the pro gun advocates for not trying hard enough? I guess I would be annoyed with people who complain about gun laws, but can't trouble themselves to show up and fight for them. But I don't think anyone blames them for losing the fight?
